Having read the Dominic Cummings advertorial in the Guardian about fifteen year olds being selected as leaders, I can only conclude that he too found the 1994 censorship of Chris Morris for misreporting the death of Michael Heseltine highly amusing, leading as it has now to said Heseltine being branded "an old man who doesn't understand Brexit".
Probably also watched Earth: Final Conflict about how an AI could have written that last paragraph, and the super-intelligent aliens are called "Tail-ons" because they didn't lose their tails through evolution so were able to leap for the higher-up intelligence grapes. AND they're all female actors!
